The top 5 reasons it’s time to review your IT partner

January 25, 2021 by Josh Barton

Author: Josh Barton | Date published: 25 Jan 2021

Read why it could be time you reviewed your IT partner with tips from Josh Barton, our Support and Migration Specialist.

IT is complex and continuously changing, having a competent and capable IT partner that understands your business will allow you to focus on your business.

Your IT partner needs to understand that the financial services sector has additional IT requirements that go beyond “best practices”. These are the requirements of ASIC. Non-compliance with these requirements is serious and puts your clients, financial services license and business at risk. Your IT partners need to understand this.

Your IT partner should be strong in Cyber Threat Management and partnered with an enterprise-grade Cyber Threat specialist. In the event of an issue, you need experienced cyber specialists. Who are they going to call for immediate assistance?

Email is now the largest communication tool you have. Protecting your email domain is critical. There are protocols that will assist in protecting your domain and stop the bad guys “spoofing” your domain. Unfortunately, these protocols are not deployed as often as they should be.

Training of staff:

  1. The BrokerReady server environment “looks like” windows 10 which your users are familiar with. Little to no training is required to have your users logged in and productive.
  2. The BrokerReady platform uses the common brokering packages; Insight, Winbeat and OfficeTech. Users are familiar with these.

At BrokerReady we provide all of these services and more. Get in touch today to discuss your requirements.
